Its also a hobby because i enjoyed the process of cooking from chopping vegetables to plating the final dishes. Cooking helps me relaxed and sparks my creativity.

What do you understand by "broiling"? Explain the difference between "baking" and "broiling?"

Baking and broiling use an oven but they are quite different. Baking surrounds the food with dry heat from all sides cooking it slowly and thoroughly. It is perfect for cakes bread and casseroles. On the other hand broiling focuses intense heat from above cooking food faster and creating a browned crisp surface. Baking is for softer moist results while broiling is for quick and crispy dishes.
